On Belay...Ready To Climb...Climb On...Climbing!

Yesterday we went indoor rock climbing at Vertical Ventures in Tampa.  Wednesday is ladies night which is half price for all the lovely ladies, in this economy well take whatever savings we can get.  Jorge our fabulous teacher informed us that it was not rock climbing since there are no actual rocks. But to us FL girls this is the closet to boulders we will get anytime soon.  He also called Kerri out for not paying attention, but who could pay attention with the monkey climbing on the wall behind us.  The rock climbing experience was amazing. Readers prepare we are getting a lil cheesey today. We were completely out of our comfort zones and had to trust and rely on each other for support. Quite honestly it could have been the best 2 hours any of us have had in a long time, and by long time we mean 3 days. We were so focused on climbing and making it to the top that was the only thing on our minds.  We cannot describe the feeling that goes through you when you reach for that last rock at the top and look down at what you accomplished. It was exhilarating. We can’t wait to go back and improve our climbing skills and who knows maybe one day we will go ROCK climbing.   This quote perfectly explains the feelings that we experienced climbing.  In the words of the wonderful Oprah Winfrey, ‘Living in the moment means letting go of the past and not waiting for the future. It means living your life consciously, aware that each moment you breathe is a gift.’ We are so blessed to have had the opportunity to live in the moment and do something that we have always wanted to try.  
So ladies if you have the opportunity to go climbing DO IT and let us know about your experience. 

After all this cheesy stuff it is only appropriate to close up with some thing hilarious….Yesterday’s Funniest one liner: She’s like the fish that jumps into the boat.  Ladies let’s not be that fish!
